Shooting
The camera automatically turns off if it is not operated for about 10 minutes.
Press the POWER switch to turn on the camera.
Never remove the battery, card or AC adapter while the mark is blinking.
Doing so could destroy stored pictures and prevent storage of pictures you have
just taken.
When taking pictures against strong backlight, the area of the picture in shadow
may appear colored.
When you point the lens toward a bright object, vertical lines (smears) may
appear on the monitor. However, this does not affect the actual recorded
pictures.
Notes on shooting
T You are too close to the subject. Take the picture at least 50 cm (19.7") away
from the subject, or try macro shooting (~ P. 48) or super macro shooting
(~ P. 48).
T The subject is out of focus. Depending on the subject, focus may not be possible.
~ “If correct focus cannot be obtained” (P. 38)
